Eclipse Luna not launching [message #1435975]

I've been using Eclipse Luna on my notebook for quite a long time now and it worked without severe problems. But now it won't start anymore. The Splash shows up for a short time but nothing else happens. I already backed up my workspace and deleted the workspace directory. I also deleted my eclipse folder and extracted the originally downloaded zip to recreate it. So - I thought - everything should be in the old state. But still it does not launch.

I really don't now how to fix this now.

What I did in the last few days(Something must have caused the problem in these days):

- I installed the java SDK to use it in the windows console(independent from eclipse)
- I downloaded the Android SDK(Eclipse + ADT Bundle) and created an own workspace for it and configured it to use this workspace
- I installed XAMPP - Which did not start because a port was in use by another software - So I killed the task which - XAMPP told me - was using this port
- I installed Visual Studio Express 2013 for Windows Desktop

Does anyone have an idea that could solve my problem? Thanks in advance!
